My Favorites of 2012

This has been a big year for me. This blog, school, planning most of my wedding, working for the newspaper. I love that when I cook something amazing I have you to share it with. Showing you the great places I eat and not showing you the places that lie is also a great privilege. Anyway these are just a few of my favorite posts/photos of the past year, I tried to pick things that were a little inventive as well as helpful. Let me know what your favorite was. I’ll see you next year!

Corn Dog Mini Muffins— The reason I love this post is that it was a recipe I sort-of made up as I went along and worked out so well. I love the idea of something easy that replaces something really complicated to make gf. Love the natural light photo too.

Bistango, in New York City— My favorite place in the world. I want to go back everyday. Also I want to go back to take better pictures. I love the people and the food here, can’t wait to be in NYC again.

Avocado Hummus— I love the photos, the one of the roasted garlic I want to print and hang in my kitchen. The hummus was amazing, as is anything that avocado is added to.

Fried Chicken— The most amazing meal of the year by far. I was so nervous to mess this up, over-cook, under-cook, the gf dredge not sticking. It was so worth it! I can’t wait to go camping again so I can make it. Fried chicken once or twice a year really seems to work for me.

Sausage, Cornbread Stuffing— A few years ago I couldn’t make my own stuffing and it was an awful thanksgiving meal for me but each time I make this it gets better. I love how much the gluten eaters in my family loved it too. It really made my holiday.
